classic Jack Burnley flag cover, Shuster art; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)
Superman #24 offers another classic cover from Jack Burnley, featuring the Man of Steel posing before an unfurled flag. There's also the classic "Perils of Poor Lois," in which Superman uses his super-imagination to do some serious daydreaming about a regular life with Lois Lane. That story includes the first appearance of Lois Lane's father, although this Sam Lane is too much of a fantasy to be canon.

Only five copies higher in the CGC Census!
Superman’s place in pop culture as an avatar of American values has been established for many decades. The clean-cut small-town upbringing that Siegel and Shuster imagined for their creation was perfectly designed to appeal to the hearts and minds of patriotic Americans, as well as playing on the dreams and desires of immigrants who hoped for their piece of the American Dream. These ideas are exemplified on the cover of Superman #24, as the Man of Steel stands in front of the gleaming city of Metropolis while proudly displaying Old Glory for all to see. Graded an impressive 8.5 by CGC, this copy is in extremely impressive condition, a sturdy spine and sharp corners encapsulate stark white pages. The bright colors on this cover show no sign of age; this is sure to be a hot item in Event Auction #61.
